http://www.angus-land.com/2015/02/pantheacon-2015-friday.html
An airborne buffet of funness. Saturday, February 21, 2015. Pantheacon, 2015: Friday. You may ask yourself: How did I get here. I woke Up at 7am on Friday, after a full 8 hours of sleep. This is what we we writerly-types call “Foreshadowing”. My Emergency Escape Pod was all ready, so I crept out of the room and dressed in the hallway, while Admiral Karen continued to slumber. I stopped in at Club Max to see how my venue for tomorrow night had fared since last year. Club Max, all shiny and clean. Outside ...

Angusland: Las Vegas
http://www.angus-land.com/2013/02/las-vegas.html
An airborne buffet of funness. Tuesday, February 19, 2013. I love real Casinos; the kind with themes. Not Card Rooms and not the Native-American-Truck-Stops-with-Slots like they have up North. What I really love are Casinos in Las Vegas, because nothing in Vegas makes any sense whatsoever. Ancient Egypt is next door to King Arthur's Excalibur. You can throw a rock from New York, New York to Monte Carlo, France. Ancient Rome is across the street from a land that apparently worships Flamingoes. But hey, if...

Angusland: The Moving Manifesto

An airborne buffet of funness. Friday, August 24, 2012. 8220;I was born in the house my Father built.”. I’m pretty sure almost no American can make this claim today. We have been a populace on the move for generations now. And that means our possessions also have to move. And that means we need movers. And that means me. I’m one of the ‘go-to guys’ to help with your move. I like helping people. I enjoy a good workout. I will actually show up, on time, on the correct day of the move, without a hangover.

Stupid daylight savings time. Newsflash, America: The cows don’t give a pasture pastry what. The clock says. Putting the entire country through mild jet lag for a week is not helping anyones - or anythings - productivity. Is their choice of drink. They are all downing a steady stream of “ Corpse Revivers.

An airborne buffet of funness. Thursday, March 26, 2015. Travels with Krispy and Noddy (And Karen! Day 3: Arches National Park. After polishing off 1,000 miles in the first two days. It was time for a break. 113 miles, less than two hours - by far the 'easiest' day. But that doesn't mean there wouldn't be challenges. Like the craziest 1.5 miles of the entire road trip. We awoke at 7:30am, after sleeping for 9.5 hours. Utah really takes it out of you. Turret Arch, from our 2004 expedition. There is a simp...

An airborne buffet of funness. Wednesday, February 18, 2015. After 10 years of attending Admiral Karen and me pretty much have this Pantheacon thing down. But that doesn't mean suprises weren't in store, or revelations did not occur. Because Pcon is the nutty Aunt and Uncle that your parents let you visit once a year, because they know it'll 'broaden' you.
. Nuh-uh. Not doing it. Being driven to recess. Plenty of room in back to eat Jumbo Shrimp. This All of this. Plus jewelry. Our driver was an authent...

An airborne buffet of funness. Thursday, April 23, 2015. Travels with Krispy and Noddy (And Karen! Days 7 and 8: Game, Set and Match. Friday, the 13th of March, 2015. Not Thursday. I awoke in a Motel 6. This is not a Charles Bukowski short story or a Tom Waits lyric. Its just a motel, albeit one that is cheaper and uglier and surlier than most. Still, I was thankful that I did not awake in the bathtub full of ice, with a badly stitched incision in my side. Karen and the Minivan back in Utah. Which, ironi...
